The Yao family has always regarded themselves as a daughter of a famous family.

But when her father was expelled from the capital, he was only given a small amount of the ancestral property, and it was almost difficult to maintain even the most basic dignity.

After marrying into the Huan family, her father and brother have managed it for many years. Now the Yao family has a place in Tianshui County and no longer has to worry about money.

But the thirty-six dowry she received when she got married was an eternal pain in her heart, and she regarded it as the greatest shame in her life.

With the same number, the Qiao family, whose background was far less than hers, filled every trousseau to the brim. Those exquisite silks, satins and porcelain made many girls envious.

However, her dowry was all empty. The silver at the bottom of the box was only one thousand taels, and the quality was very ordinary.

Not to mention the Luo family, General Luo used almost half of the wealth he had accumulated over many years of fighting to give her as a dowry.

After being married to Huan Song for nearly twenty years, her desire for a title was far less intense than that of her husband, but she refused to relax even for a moment when it came to amassing money.

Of course, if the person who inherited the title was her son, she would spend all the money on hand without hesitation.

But in the current situation, the distance between her son and the title is still too far, so the master just wants to gain money from her?!

Yao scolded Huan Song in his heart, and then smiled lightly and said: "Although fresh fruits are valuable, with my financial resources, I can't afford to supply them for three to five days, right?"

Huan Song's brows furrowed again: "Madam, I have misunderstood. My husband means that we cannot favor one thing over another.

If you don’t worry about the scarcity but the inequality, according to what you just said, it’s better not to give it away.”

Yao's thin lips pursed into a straight line.

Of course she understands the truth, but she thinks this flattery is too expensive!

"Master, I was just saying angry words. We have made a lot of profits in the past few years, so we should have no problem dealing with this matter."

Huan Song said: "In that case, things will be much easier to handle! Although fresh fruits and melons are expensive, the quantity is large and the price can be kept low.

My husband inquired carefully and found out that a box of melons and fruits like today's would cost two hundred silver each.

If you purchase on a monthly basis and double the quantity, the price can be cut at least in half."

Yao was moved after hearing this, and considered it carefully.

In no more than three months, the fresh fruits of the season will be on the market one after another.

No matter how proud Princess Yiyang is, she should relax after eating for a month.

Twenty thousand taels of silver is not a big sum at all, not to mention that the master has a lot of silver on hand. She can only add a few thousand taels of silver at most.

If the money is used to buy other items, Princess Yiyang may not even look at them.

This deal is actually not a bad deal!

"Master, just go ahead and do it. I will make up for it no matter how much money is missing."

Seeing how straightforward she was, Huan Song smiled and said: "Melons and fruits are all ready-made, and you can get as much money as you need.

But Madam must think carefully about how to deliver this gift to Princess Yiyang."

Yao thought for a moment: "What do you think of letting Qiong'er handle this matter?"

"Madam is an elder, so it's certainly inappropriate to go there in person. It's just that Qiong'er is too young..."

In fact, Huan Song is more optimistic about his daughter-in-law, Xiao Xu, than his daughter.

It is a normal thing for sisters-in-law to give each other some food.

Moreover, Qiong'er's bad temper makes even him, a father, dare not praise her.

By leaving such an important matter to her, Madam is really not afraid of wasting her money.

Yao sighed: "Sir, I don't know that Chen's daughter-in-law is the most suitable candidate, but their little couple has been having a lot of trouble recently.

Qiong'er will be thirteen soon, we must give her some opportunities to exercise, otherwise she will not be good in the future..."

Huan Song said: "That's all, I'll leave this matter to my wife. My husband has to go out of the house."

"Why are you going out so late? Dinner is already prepared."

What good could a man do if he goes out so late? Yao felt really upset just thinking about it.

Huan Song explained: "My wife has thought too much. My husband is going to meet with the melon and fruit seller to finalize the matter as soon as possible."

How could Yao be convinced?

The melons and fruits are all ready-made, and you can get as much money as you need.

Who just said this?!

She waved her hand patiently: "Master, go ahead and remember to drink less."

"Don't worry, madam." Huan Song smiled and walked out.

Mrs. Yao's face darkened, and she ordered her maid to invite Huan Qiong to come and have dinner with her.

Huan Qiong arrived soon.

"Mom, do you want the kitchen to cook something delicious again?"

Mrs. Yao pulled her to sit next to her and waved away the maids and servants.

She pointed to the box containing the fruit: "Qiong'er, after dinner later, you can send this to Princess Yiyang in the Quail Garden."

Huan Qiong blinked curiously: "What's in it?"

Yao smiled and said: "It's just some fruits. My mother heard that the princess has some eating disorders, so she wanted to take care of her.

You two are equals, so I can only leave this kind of thing to you."

"Melons and fruits?" Huan Qiong opened the box curiously.

Sixteen oranges with clear yellow color and clear water whetted her appetite immediately.

Her taste is very similar to Yao's, and her favorite fruit is also orange.

"Mom, where did this come from? I just ate one at lunch, and it didn't look like this at all!" Huan Qiong pointed at the oranges angrily.

"You kid!" Mrs. Yao slapped her little hand away: "Didn't my mother teach you before? Of course you have to give the best things to others. It's a matter of face.

Originally, your sister-in-law should have done this, but my mother has left you all the opportunities to get close to the princess, and you are still not happy?"

The person Huan Qiong hates the most these days is Xiao Xu. Hearing these words, his mouth dropped.

Mom is lying to her again!

Who in the whole family doesn’t know about my sister-in-law’s little thoughts?

There are so many people serving the second sister-in-law, don’t they know how to inquire?

The mother was obviously afraid that the elder sister-in-law would do something to offend her because she was jealous of the second sister-in-law, so she took the blame for it.

"What are you doing?" Yao scolded lightly.

"Mom, you want me to go, then find me another piece of the same fruit and I'll give it to my third sister-in-law."

Yao spent a lot of money to flatter Xiao Bi, at least half of the reason was to deal with Hua Xiaohan.

But what are her daughters talking about?

I didn't hear that Hua Shi gave Qiong'er any benefits, so...

She tried to use a gentle tone and said: "Do you think you can have as much good fruit as you want in this season?

Your father was out of the house for several hours today, and we only managed to get these few.

Your second sister-in-law has a distinguished status and is ranked high in the ranking, so my mother asked you to deliver it to Quanquan Garden first.

Tomorrow, your father will find other fruits and give them to your third sister-in-law."
